Trips

Mexico

4/5/2024: We woke up at 4:45 to get a jump on the Tawny-throated Nightjar. After arriving at the spot, we could hear it calling right away. There was the silhouette of a nightjar as well, but I think that was the Pauraque, which we heard more of.

This trip, we took the guides from Kingfisher Tours, and I don't think I would have found the Long-billed Thrasher without their help.

After the nightjay/thrasher spot, we headed over to a nearby lake.
